GH¢4 Billion Injection to Revive Stalled Road Projects

GH¢4 Billion Injection to Revive Stalled Road Projects

The Government of Ghana has announced plans to disburse up to GH¢4 billion to road contractors in a phased approach, aimed at restarting critical infrastructure projects that have been suspended since the beginning of the year.

This financial intervention is part of the government’s broader strategy to accelerate national development and improve road infrastructure across the country.

The decision follows a months-long suspension of contractor payments, which was instituted earlier this year to allow for a comprehensive audit of outstanding claims.

Minister for Roads and Highways, Kwame Governs Agbodza, reaffirmed the government’s commitment to completing vital road infrastructure and emphasized that priority projects would be fast-tracked. “We will prioritise the Ofankor–Nsawam road and ensure that all contractors receive the necessary support to return to site,” the Minister said.

The release of funds is expected to restore momentum to key projects, ease traffic congestion, boost job creation, and enhance connectivity in urban and rural communities. Contractors have been urged to be ready for immediate mobilization once funds are disbursed.

The announcement has been met with relief and optimism from both contractors and commuters, marking a critical step in reviving stalled infrastructure and delivering on the government’s promise of accelerated development.
